Hi Parents,
My girl is in P4 and we are looking for recommendations and feedback of tuition centers in or near Marine Parade to help her get focused and start getting more serious about studies and also to ensure her lower primary foundation is better.
Please do share your experience and thoughts.
Thank you,
Jigar
Thank you everyone for your inputs. Have decided on CHIJ (Katong), even though Haig Girl's seem to be more popular. At the end of the day, a 5 min walk to a reasonably good school is considered very lucky already so just be happy, count my blessings that no nail biting finale to worry about. Apply and go enjoy cappucino and cakes later :).. I thank everyone who commented and gave their inputs.
Aiyah, I think put mine in CHIJ and sleep peacefully. She also can sleep peacefully and walk to school in 5 mins.

Yes. Skip the drama. RGPS is likely to ballot 1-2km this year.
In any case, it’s not worth travelling half way across the island for RGPS when u have a girls school across the road from you. Sleep is important to grow the brain anyway.[/quote]
- is there any other school in this area that you would recommend over CHIJ (Katong)?
Hi All, quick question. My Daughter is a SC.
RGPS is now 171 applicants for 76 seats. We are >2km (staying in Marine Parade) - and CHIJ (Katong) (Across our house <1km), is 47 applicants for 106 seats. It is likely that CHIJ (Katong) will still have spots left in 2C(S). However, I don’t know if I need the drama or take the chance.
Question is, do you think it is useful to still try for RGPS (my deadline for submission is Thu 4.30pm) and take a chance? What are the chances of there being any spots left for >2km in RGPS? Or would you recommend just going to CHIJ directly and saving myself the drama?
